Hello, I seek a sponsor to upload my konversation package.
The package is lintian and linda clean, and has a cruft-free diff.gz. The source should be easy reading for anyone familiar with C++ and Qt. Here follows the body of my ITP message: * Package name : konversation Version : 0.13 Upstream Author : Dario Abatianni <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> et al. * URL : http://konversation.sourceforge.net/ * License : GPL * Description : User friendly Internet Relay Chat client for KDE Konversation is a client for the Internet Relay Chat (IRC) protocol. It is easy to use and well-suited for novice IRC users, but novice and experienced users alike will appreciate its many features: . * Tabbed channel and server windows * IRC color support * Pattern-based message highlighting and OnScreen Display * Multiple identity support * Powerful, multi-language scripting support (with DCOP) * Customizable command aliases * NickServ-aware logon (for registered nicknames) * Smart logging * Traditional or enhanced-shell-style nick completion * DCC resuming I have been maintaining CVS snapshot packages of this program for a month or so now, primarily for my own entertainment. However, when asked recently about uploading a stable release to Debian, I realized that this was only logical. So here I am. This package is lintian and linda* clean. If anyone wants to co-maintain, I'm happy to share or help or whatever. The package I propose uploading is at the following repository: deb http://debian.houseofnate.net/ unstable proposed deb-src http://debian.houseofnate.net/ unstable proposed The latest version of the debian directory can also be browsed at my Subversion repository: http://svn.houseofnate.net/pkg-konversation/branches/stable/ Comments and criticism are most welcome. =) Cheers, nate P.S. If anyone wants to sponsor me for this package, please let me know. I have tried to make the .diff.gz as clean as possible for your reviewing pleasure. =) ---- *I get a warning "W: konversation; Script ./usr/share/doc/konversation/ examples/dcop-away.sh is not executable.", but I think this is safe to ignore. [2003-12-02: I have since made this warning go away.] -- Nathaniel W. Turner http://www.houseofnate.net/ Tel: +1 508 579 1948 (mobile)
